West Virginia Historical Society Quarterly Scrip could be paper, but was more often metal coinage on which the name of the coal company was imprinted. Companies routinely paid their miners in "scrip," a form of money that each company issued in lieu of U. currency. It is possible that the scrip system allowed them to continue to function without the large outlays of cash that could be difficult to obtain as banks across the nation failed on a daily basis. www.wvculture.org /history/wvhs1503.html   (3820 words)

Scrip - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Scrip is a form of credit which was extended to any company employee who had accrued a salary. Traditionally, scrip has been thought of as what employees were "paid" with, particularly in the United States, where everything in a mining or logging camp was run, created and owned by the company. Scrip is also related to the stock market where companies pay dividends in the form of scrip rather than paying actual currency. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Scrip   (1088 words)

scrip issue - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about scrip issue The purpose of a scrip issue is to reduce the price of the company's shares in the market. If the share price is particularly high, a scrip issue makes the shares appear more affordable and reasonably priced, although in fact they are effectively worth the same as they were before the scrip issue. This is usually done on the basis of a certain number of shares per each share already issued; so under a one-for-one scrip issue a holder of five shares would receive five more. encyclopedia.farlex.com /scrip+issue   (170 words)

White Company: Chapter 4 Dropping his scrip, he bounded over the stream once more, and made for the two villains, with his staff whirled over his shoulder and his gray eyes blazing with fury. Yet to him, used as he was to a life of such quiet that the failure of a brewing or the altering of an anthem had seemed to be of the deepest import, the quick changing play of the lights and shadows of life was strangely startling and interesting. The robbers, however, were not disposed to leave their victim until they had worked their wicked will upon her. www.kellscraft.com /whitecompany/whitecompany04.html   (4554 words)
